Renesmee

"Hey, we are here!" I call out as I closed the door behind us to the Cullen house. Jacob and I slip off our shoes setting them on the rack and hang our rain jackets on the rack over them. When no one responds we wander further into the house to find my whole family sitting around the table.

"We're in here." My dad calls out still facing everyone else.

"We've long overstayed our welcome. I know we wanted to stay as long as possible for Nessie and Jacob, and they are more than welcome to stay here, but we can't stay here anymore," Carlisle mutters as everyone nods.

"Well, then I can't decide if this is the right time to talk about this but," Aunt Alice starts. Jacob and I wordlessly join everyone else at the twelve person table. "Jasper and I have been thinking about, not leaving but taking some time alone to do our own thing. Neither of us has been to any other continent long term and would like a chance to have some freedom instead of perpetually going to high school for another half century."

"Alice, beyond the fact that your gifts are part of what makes other uninvited covens leave us alone and keeps the Volturi away, we all love you so much and would hate to not have you with us," Esme says.

"It would certainly be an adjustment to not having Alice and Jasper around anymore. They've both been with us for almost seventy years," Carlisle adds.

"Which is exactly why we feel it's time for Jasper and I have some time alone I think. We also have been thinking about meeting with Peter and Charlotte at some point."

"Since we're on the topic," Jacob adds in, I try to give him a look, letting him know that now might not be the best time to talk about this but he continues anyway. "Renesmee and I have been talking about moving to Maine, we found an apartment and are looking for jobs.

"How long have you spoken about this?" My mom looks hurt and distraught at the realization that, for the first time, she hadn't been a part of me making a life choice.

"Not long, it's a recent conversation that we just picked up after we talked about it back when I was pregnant with Sarah.

"Is there anyone planning on staying with us?" Emmett chuckles. "What do you think babe, Paris?"

"Well…" She trails off looking out the window. "It wouldn't hurt to talk about."

"I guess it's just Bella and Edward planning on party crashing," Emmett says, nudging my dad.

"Oh I'm sure we could find somewhere to go for a few decades," my mom says with a laugh.

"Are we all talking about leaving each other for a while?" Rosalie asks after a long pause. Everyone looks around realizing we seriously are talking about breaking up our family. Carlisle nods slowly.

"I can't even imagine everyone living anywhere other than here," I whisper. Jacob lays his arm over my shoulder and pulls me closer to him. When we had talked about going to Maine, we forgot to consider that my our family was ready to move on as well.

"It could end up being for the best. The pack size will go down once there, and no one new will shift once there aren't vampire's living here, that will be good because then my guys can go off and get lives."

"Who will take over the pack in the meantime if you leave?" Carlisle questions.

"I have to ask officially, but I think Leah is ready and will make a great leader. None of the guys will give her any shit, I mean crap, I mean- they won't give her any trouble," he chuckles, "and her relationship with Seth will make him a great second."

"I'm going to miss being a part of all of your lives all the time," Rosalie sighs. "Maybe not the dog so much as the others but…"

"Jacob and I are talking about having kids in maybe ten years, but it sounds like you all want to be gone longer than that, but you are always welcome to come visit. It's not like we will never see each other."

"If we want to meet up back in Forks again then we have to wait closer to seventy years. We can find other places in the meantime, but then I think we need to sell this house," Esme adds. "What if we meet somewhere in thirty years, until then if Jacob and Ness have kids we can come visit whenever."

"Isle Esme, 2040 something?" Everyone slowly nods in agreement with Emmett.

"Anyone who's managed not to drink humans in the meantime is more than welcome to talk about joining the family again," Carlisle explains in a comment directed at Jasper, Emmett and me

And just like that, the Cullen family had formally made plans to leave each other for the first time in over 120 years. Our anniversary passes without much fanfare beyond some awesome sex and the frozen top of the cake from our wedding. The next two weeks become a bustle of packing, throwing things out, filling a Goodwill truck and selling things.

Esme and Carlisle planned to stay at the house until it is sold, giving her time to return it to a more human state. My parents helped Jacob, and I pack only what will be necessary to bring to Maine, while Jasper works with J. Janks for all the documents everyone will need, at least for the next few decades. Rosalie and Emmett left to backpack in Europe as soon as birth certificates, passports, and other important documents came in. Alice and Jasper left shortly after towards Mexico, leaving just my parents, grandparents, Jacob and I to say goodbye to Charlie, Billy, and the pack.

"Take care of yourself kid." Grandpa Charlie mutters as he strokes my hair. You as well Jacob, don't let her get into too much trouble, and if you have any kiddo's before I kick the bucket, make sure you bring 'em by."

"I'll take good care of her." Jacob pulls Charlie, patting him on the shoulder and muttering something to him. "I'll see you soon dad, I love you.," he says as pulls himself away and leans down to hug his fragile father. We had talked about the fact that after we had said goodbye to Billy, it could very well be the last time Jacob saw his dad because although he was a tough man, he was already in his 70's with plenty of health problems. We knew though that Billy had always wanted a human life for his son and that's exactly what we were setting out to do. Jacob hangs onto his dad for a long time before finally letting go. I lean down and give him a tight hug as well.

Charlie, on the other hand, my mother will almost certainly never see again. She should be in her 30's and still looked to be about 19 with a daughter who looked 20. 'Need to know' had become too hard for Charlie and it was only a matter of time before he would start to demand to know what had happened to his daughter.

"I love you so much. Thank you for everything."

"I'm your dad, kiddo. I didn't do anything special. It's you who's pretty special." His voice is rough, and his face turns red and blotchy as he holds back his tears. "Make sure you give your mom a call once and awhile and don't forget about me either. I want to hear all about New Zealand." The Cropp River area in New Zealand was one of the rainiest places on earth, and that's coming from someone who grew up in Forks.

"I will Dad." She pulls away and lets my dad give Charlie a hug before giving her dad one last hug. I can't even imagine how painful it must for her. I know I'm going to see my parents again and even know I'm going to cry a little.

We all start one last round of hugs as Esme and Carlisle pull up in their cars to drive us and everything to the airport in Seattle. They climb out and join in on the hugs as well.

"Unfortunately the planes won't wait, we need to get going," Carlisle reminds us gently.

"I love you I tell my Grandpa and father in law one last time before turning to the cars. Charlie nods and tears start to slip out as he turns and pushes Billy back to his truck. Unable to take care for himself full time, Charlie and Sue would be moving out to the Rez to keep an eye on him.

My mom gets in the front seat of Esme's car, and I climb in back, letting my dad and Jacob drive with Carlisle. As we ride in silence, I keep an eye on my mom in the mirror. She looks like she could cry and almost looks in pain at the inability to give into her emotions.

At the airport, Esme and Carlisle help us unload and check baggage before we say goodbye one last time. We will all be flying through Atlanta before we make a connection to Maine and my parents leave for New Zealand.

"For the first time in my married life, your dad and I are going to be alone and not be parents all the time. I'm not sure we will even know what to do with ourselves with all that free time," my mom giggles.

"I never thought of it like that." I smile at her, using my free hand to take her's. Jacob comes up on the other side to take her other hand, and my dad quickly grabs my mom's roller bag.

"It's been an honor being your mom. Even if it did mean giving up being with your dad alone for awhile, I wouldn't have in any other way," she says in a hushed tone to keep others around from hearing.

"I love you, Momma."

"I love you, Renesmee."

"Our flight boards in five minutes, let's get a move on, " my dad calls. My mom takes the suitcases from Jacob and I as we get to the waiting area for our plane. We excuse ourselves to the restroom and to buy a few bottles of water quickly. On the way back Jacob takes my hand and kisses the top of my head.

"Are you ready?"

Hey guys, thanks so much for reading chapter 13! I finally remembered to run all my chapters through Grammarly, so I'm very slowly going back and fixing old chapters. By the way- to all author's out there, Grammarly is a life saver. I use it on all my homework assignments and I finally can up with the idea of running my stories through here, and I can't believe how many little things I've missed in the past. Highly recommended!

It's great checking traffic stats on my story and getting to see people reading. Please, if you get a chance to, follow this story and leave a review and let me know what your thinking. I would really appreciate it.
